Using "mount -t msdos" is deprecated; the canonical name of the
filesystem type is "msdosfs". There has been some compatibility glue in mount(8) to silently convert "mount -t msdos" to "mount -t msdosfs" for a while now, but using the deprecated name may cause errors when someone tries to "umount -t msdos". The later doesn't work at all. Noticed by: rodrigc, long ago
